    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Le bénomyl a modifié les populations de Tetranychus urticae Koch en interférant avec son champignon pathogène, Neozygites floridana (Weiser & Muma). Le bénomyl retardait mais prolongeait les pullulations de l'acarien. Peu d'acariens étaient infectés par le champignon quand on utilisait du bénomyl. Les réductions des populations d'acariens traitées avec l'hydroxyde de fentine étaient associées à un haut niveau d'infection par N. floridana. Le bénomyl ne modifiait pas la sporulation de N. floridana mais semblait inhiber la germination des conidies ou la croissance du champignon.
    Notes: Abstract Benomyl affected populations of Tetranychus urticae by interfering with the pathogenic fungus, Neozygites floridana. Benomyl delayed but prolonged spider mite outbreaks. Few mites were infected with the pathogen when benomyl was used. Reductions in mite populations treated with fentin hydroxide were associated with a high incidence of N. floridana infection. Benomyl did not affect sporulation of N. floridana but appeared to inhibit conidial germination or growth of the fungus.

    Notes: Abstract The effect of fertilizer regime on trichome- and lamellar-based resistance in the wild tomato species, Lycopersicon hirsutum f. glabratum C.H. Mull accession PI 134417, to three insect pests of tomato, the tobacco hornworm, Manduca sexta (L.), the colorado potato beetle, Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Say), and the tomato fruitworm, Heliocoverpa zea (Boddie), was examined. Increasing the rate at which NPK fertilizer was applied, from 1.8 to 19.6 g/plant/week, reduced the trichome-based resistance of PI 134417 to M. sexta and L. decemlineata by lowering both the density of type VI (sensu Luckwill, 1943) glandular trichomes and the amount of 2-tridecanone contained in the tips of these trichomes. 2-Tridecanone is a toxic methyl-ketone responsible for glandular trichome-mediated resistance in PI 134417 to M. sexta and L. decemlineata. A similar increase in the application rate of NPK fertilizer reduced the lamellarbased resistance of PI 134417 to L. decemlineata and H. zea. The meachanisms for this reduction of resistance are unknown, but may be related to improved nutritional quality of hosts at higher fertilizer regimes.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Dans des parcelles de maïs dont les populations d'espèces prédatrices avaient été éliminées par du carbaryl, des populations de T. urticae ont régressé en fonction de la dispersion aérienne des acariens ou d'épizooties provoquées par N. floridana. L'importance relative de ces deux causes varie d'année suivant les conditions écologiques. Le pathogène paraissait la principale cause de déclin des populations quand le temps humide a induit les épizooties par N. floridana avant que le maïs n'ait été largement contaminé par les acariens. Quand le temps sec a permis aux populations d'acariens de se développer sans frein jusqu'à contamination totale du maïs, la dispersion aérienne des acariens était la principale cause de déclin des populations d'acariens. Dans tous les champs où il y avait eu épizootie de N. floridana, des traitements de routine avec le fongicide meneb ont retardé les épizooties et réduit ou retardé l'impact du pathogène sur les populations d'acariens. Pendant toute la période d'étude, le nombre total d'acariens infestés par Neozygites était significativement plus élevé dans les parcelles traitées au maneb que dans les parcelles non traitées, lorsque les épizooties étaient provoquées pendant la période de croissance des populations d'acariens. Quand les épizooties ont été déclenchées pendant la période de déclin des populations d'acariens, un nombre plus faible d'acariens infestés était observé dans les parcelles traitées au maneb que dans les parcelles sans traitement.
    Notes: Abstract In field plots in which populations of predaceous species were suppressed using carbaryl, populations of the twospotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae Koch, on field corn declined in association with aerial dispersal of the mites or with epizootics of the entomogenous fungus, Neozygites floridana Weiser & Muma. The relative importance of these two factors varied from year to year depending on environmental conditions. When moist weather conditions induced epizootics of N. floridana before corn plants became heavily infested with mites, the pathogen appeared to be the major factor causing mite population declines. When dry weather conditions allowed mite populations to expand unchecked until corn plants became entirely infested, mite aerial dispersal was the major factor associated with mite population declines. In every field in which there was an epizootic of N. floridana, routine applications of the fungicide maneb delayed epizootics and reduced or delayed the impact of the pathogen on mite populations. The total number of Neozygites-infected mites produced in maneb-treated plots throughout the test period was significantly greater than that in untreated plots when epizootics were initiated during periods of mite population growth. Fewer total infected mites were produced in maneb-treated plots compared to untreated plots when epizootics were initiated during periods of mite population decline.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Des modèles conceptuels et mathématiques ont servi à examiner l'influence du potentiel d'ennemis naturels sur le taux d'adaptation d'herbivores à des facteurs de résistance des plantes. Les résultats montrent que les ennemis naturels peuvent augmenter ou réduire le taux d'adaptation des herbivores. Les effets spécifiques (comportementaux et physiologiques) d'un facteur de résistance sur l'herbivore, aussi bien que le comportement de l'ennemi naturel et la dynamique de population du système ennemi naturel/herbivore permettent de déterminer le niveau de l'effet des ennemis naturels sur le taux d'adaptation de l'herbivore au facteur de résistance. Une adaptation de l'herbivore à une résistance partielle à une plante est généralement envisagée comme plus lente qu'une adaptation à des hauts niveaux de résistance, même en présence d'ennemis naturels, mais il peut y avoir des exceptions.
    Notes: Abstract The potential of natural enemies to influence the rate of herbivore adaptation to resistance factors in plants is examined using conceptual and mathematical models. Results indicate that natural enemies could increase or decrease the rate of herbivore adaptation. The specific behavioral and physiological effects of a resistance factor on the herbivore, as well as the behavior of the natural enemy, and the population dynamics of the natural enemy/herbivore system are important in assessing the extent to which the natural enemies will affect the rate of herbivore adaptation to a resistance factor. Herbivore adaptation to partial resistance in a host-plant is generally expected to be slower than adaptation to high levels of resistance, even in the presence of natural enemies, if genetic variance is not limiting.

    Notes: Abstract The role of the steroidal glycoalkaloid α-tomatine in the hostplant resistance of tomato to the Colorado potato beetle,Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Say) was examined in short- (24 hr; using first- and fourth-instar larvae) and long-term (first-instar larvae reared through the prepupal stage) feeding experiments. Consumption rate, growth rate, efficiency of conversion of ingested food to body mass, and survival were compared forL. decemlineata provided foliage from susceptible (Lycopersicon esculetum Mill. cv. Walter), resistant (L. hirsutum f.Glabratum C.H. Mull accession PI 134417), and F1 hybrid plants. Values obtained for dietetic indices were regressed against corresponding values for α-tomatine content of foliage provided to larvae. Differences in dietetic indices could not be attributed to variation in foliar α-tomatine content despite a long-standing literature showing theex planta α-tomatine inhibits feeding and growth byL. decemlineata.
